About Launceston Tamar Valley |
|
Launceston is an ideal base to explore the many natural and historic attractions of the Tamar (the Valley of the Senses) – without fuss or frenzy. A wine lover's and foodie's paradise, it's made for losing yourself - in exploration, romance and adventure, by land, air, river or sea. Situated in Australia’s Northern Tasmania, our climate is similar to the south of France, and our locals are well-known for their friendliness. A quick flight from Melbourne or Sydney, Launceston Tamar Valley is a 'sensational' place to visit – for a short break or a major holiday.  |

I made the Tassie team from there, and then the Australian Team" David Boon |
